The document discusses the spread of Buddhism from the 3rd to 7th centuries through major trade routes like the Indian Ocean trading routes and Silk Road. Buddhism slowly moved into China in the 1st century CE, spread by Chinese pilgrims traveling in both directions. It was not heavily promoted by the Harsha or Sui dynasties in China. The spread of Buddhism into Korea is hinted at, while Japan is ignored. Cultural transmission of Buddhist statuary is seen over time in Korea, Japan, and Thailand, showing the religion's influence over the region.

Strayer ch05 notes
This document discusses class and caste systems in ancient China, India, and Rome. In China, society was divided into elite officials, landlords, peasants, and merchants. The civil service was open to all males but favored the wealthy. In India, the rigid caste system divided society into hereditary social groups based on occupation. The system justified social inequality through Hindu concepts. In Rome, slavery was widespread and the backbone of the economy, with slaves making up over 30% of the population in some areas. Resistance was generally nonviolent but the rebellion led by Spartacus showed the potential for open revolt. Overall, the document examines how different societies organized and stratified social class and hierarchies.
Emergence of civilization
The document provides an overview of the emergence of early civilizations. It describes how early humans lived as hunter-gatherers and then developed agriculture during the Neolithic Revolution around 10,000 years ago. This allowed for permanent settlements and the rise of civilizations along major river valleys, including Mesopotamia, Egypt, India, and China. These early civilizations made advances in areas like irrigation, government, religion, and writing systems. The document also discusses the ancient Hebrews and the development of the monotheistic religion of Judaism.

The document discusses trade routes between 500-1500 CE. It focuses on the Silk Roads between China and Europe, the Indian Ocean sea routes, and trans-Saharan land routes. Along these routes, goods like silk and spices were traded, religions spread, and diseases transmitted. Merchants accumulated wealth and cities like Srivijaya rose to prominence by controlling strategic choke points. West Africa developed larger states and cities due to trans-Saharan trade and the influence of Islam. Networks of interaction differed in the Americas, being oriented north-south and within civilizations rather than between them like in Eurasia.

The Mayan Temple of the Great Jaguar in Tikal, Guatemala was built in the 8th century AD to serve as the tomb for ruler Chan K'awill. The 144 foot tall temple has a steep pyramid shape with nine large steps and hundreds of small steps, topped by a temple with a roof featuring carvings. While its explicit purpose was as a tomb, it also served to accentuate the ruler's power and status by widening the physical distance between those at the top and bottom of the structure.
The Classical Period
I. The document discusses the spread of civilization in Africa, including the Bantu dispersal beginning around 3000 BCE which spread agriculture and ironworking throughout the continent by 1200 CE.
II. It examines Africa's interactions with the wider world, including the Christian kingdom of Axum in Ethiopia and the trading state of Ghana which controlled trans-Saharan trade routes.
III. Nomadic societies like the Celts, Germans, and Slavs are discussed, noting their migrations and cultural influences beginning in the 2nd millennium BCE.

This document provides an overview of early world history from the emergence of humankind to the development of civilizations. It discusses how hominids evolved in Africa around 5-6 million years ago and began migrating from Africa around 2 million years ago. Around 11,000 years ago, the agricultural revolution began as some hominid groups started domesticating plants and animals, allowing for population growth and division of labor. Some of the first complex civilizations emerged around 3500 BCE in river valleys and dominated the globe until the post-1000 CE era. Civilizations laid the foundations for modern empires, religions, technologies, and social inequalities.

The Silk Roads were complex networks of trade routes across Eurasia that connected China with Central Asia and the Mediterranean world from around 200 BCE to 1400 CE. They facilitated the exchange of goods, ideas, technologies and religions between civilizations. While silk was an important trade good, many other products like spices, metals, glass and ceramics were also exchanged. The routes were used by nomadic pastoralists, merchants from places like Sogdiana, and travelers like Buddhist monks to transmit Buddhism and other faiths. Over time, different groups like the Xiongnu, Sogdians, Turks, Arabs and Mongols rose to power in Central Asia and controlled sections of the routes, shaping patterns of trade and cultural exchange

Spreading Cultures in China and Southeast Asia.ppt
GRADE 7 UAE SST
How was culture spread in China?
Belief systems that came from outside China were spread mostly via trade and diplomatic exchange, and almost all of them have been assimilated into Chinese culture. There is a mutual influence in China between the development of traditions and beliefs and the advances in technology and production.
How did Indian culture spread in China?
Thereafter Indian missionaries as well as Chinese scholars translated Buddhist scriptures and other writings into Chinese. Indian missionaries not only preached a new faith but also brought in new cultural influences. Indian mathematics and astronomical ideas enriched Chinese knowledge in these fields.
Where did China get its culture from?
Chinese have traditionally believed that the Huaxia tribe originated Chinese culture. Ancient texts say that the Huaxia lived in the Central Plain near Beijing hundreds of years before the Shang Dynasty (1600–1046 BC) started and spread westwards and southwards along the Yellow River basin.
How did Islam spread to Southeast Asia?
Muslim merchants from the Arabian Peninsula had to pass through these islands of the south via the maritime Silk Roads to reach China's ports. In addition, according to historical accounts, Muslim traders came to the Indonesian islands because of the rare spices present there.

South asian art and culture
South Asian art and culture developed over millennia in the diverse region now comprising India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Bhutan. The ancient Indus Valley civilization flourished as early as the 3rd millennium BC, building cities and crafting steatite seals. Later, Aryan peoples entering the subcontinent between 1800-1200 BC brought Hinduism, rooted in the Vedic hymns. Hinduism evolved as a diverse, polytheistic faith with regional variations. Major religious architecture like temples featured ornate carvings depicting gods and auspicious motifs. Alongside Hindu arts, Buddhism and Jainism arose in 6th century BC India and spread across Asia, while other faiths like Islam also

INFLUENCE OF CHRISTIANITY ON INDIAN ARCHITECTURE ART AND CRAFT
Christianity is India's third-largest religion after Hinduism and Islam. Saint Thomas the Apostle is said to have brought Christianity to India who supposedly reached the Malabar Coast (Kerala) in 52 AD. Saint Thomas was one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus according to the New Testament. Local rulers in Kerala gave the St. Thomas Christians various rights and privileges which were written on copper plates.
In Mughal times Missionaries took advantage of using visual aids for propagating Christianity (Christian Faith) to the Mughal emperor Akbar. It was during his time when artists imitated copies of European art specifically related to Christian faith. His successors Jahangir and Shah Jahan also motivated artists to imitate Christian art and to create in a European manner.
The very first paintings to reach the Mughal court were large oil paintings of Mother Mary, a religious figure known to the Muslim world, by her presence in the Quran.

North Korea: Hangover of the 20th Century
North Korea is often portrayed as a 'rogue state' and 'unpredictable' but like any other state it has a history which has to be taken into account to make sense of its present. Throughout the 20th century, Northern Korea has been on the front lines between empires, and between imperialists and liberators. The end of the Cold War globally has not solved the Korean separation the way it solved the German one, though the ideological rhetoric has changed. North Korean leadership invokes this history regularly to explain and justify its positions, and this has to be taken seriously in any analysis of North Korea's 21st century development.
Along with Imperialisms past and present, North Korea's nuclear weapons and missile programs are offshoots of 20th century processes of proliferation, in which weapons technology passed from state to state, sometimes intentionally, sometimes not. Perhaps more importantly, North Korea is drawing on the experience of disarmament over the last 25 years, a process that has not always gone well for states that surrender their nuclear weapons capacity.
All this is true, but perhaps more importantly, it appears to be the foundation of the North Korean understanding of how we got to this point, and what matters in this moment: regime survival in the face of multiple hostile controlling empires. We are historical beings, etc.
Diaspora and Modernity: Infrastructure and Nationalism in Transnational Immi...
This document summarizes Jonathan Dresner's work on transnational immigrant patterns and the relationship between diaspora, modernity, and nationalism. It discusses how chain and return migration lead to concentration in sending and receiving areas. Immigrant communities invest in their home countries through remittances and local institutions. Assimilation occurs across generations as ethnic nationalism develops. Modern infrastructure like travel, communication, and media help maintain connections across borders while invented traditions form new identities. Migration must be understood in the context of modernity and the systems that structure the globalized world.
20th Century Fascism
Fascism believes in actions motivated by heroism rather than economics. It rejects the idea that society can be directed by majority rule or class warfare alone. For fascism, the state is absolute and individuals are relative, meant to serve the state. The fascist state organizes society but leaves room for individual liberty, as long as it is not harmful or useless freedom. Fascism sees imperialism and expansion as signs of a rising people and renunciation as a sign of decay. It demands discipline and sacrifice to coordinate people behind the goals of the state.
Migration and modernity and identity in east asia (MWWHA 2016)
A dramatic increase in physical mobility is a hallmark of the transition to modernity in any society. The combination of economic industrialization, mechanization of transportation and proletarianization of labor makes migration necessary for effective development. This paper will examine concepts of modernity to elucidate the central role played by migration in transition to economic, social, cultural, and political modernity. Changes in internal and external migration in 19th and 20th century China, Japan, and Korea will be examined along with conventional historiographical periodization to see how understanding modernity as movement can and should alter our understanding of East Asian history.
Migration and Modernity in East Asia (ASPAC 2015)
This document summarizes Jonathan Dresner's presentation on migration and modernity in East Asia. It discusses how modernization and the transition to economic and social modernity cannot occur without migration. However, many definitions of modernity fail to include new patterns and high volumes of human movement as a primary component. The document then reviews definitions of modernity and Osterhammel's perspective on the 19th century. It analyzes patterns of migration in Japan, China, and Korea and how migration distinguishes East Asian civilization. It concludes by arguing modernity has technological migration at its core and history must consider mobile populations.
Japanese food history: Traditions and Changes
The document discusses the history of Japanese food from the 16th century to modern times. It traces foreign influences that introduced foods like tempura, bread, and peppers. In the early modern era, a peace dividend led to an agricultural boom and the spread of new crops from the Americas. Everyday meals for common people centered around rice with soup and pickles, while elites had more variety. Sushi originated as a preservation method and street food before becoming popular nationwide. Modern refrigeration and globalization have made sushi and sashimi accessible worldwide.

The document provides background information on terrorism and the history of Chechnya.

It then outlines the history of Chechnya, including Russian expansion into Chechen territory in the 19th century, uprisings against Russian control, mass expulsions of Chechens, and two wars for independence from Russia in the 1990s and 2000s that led to guerrilla warfare and terrorist attacks.

Hideyoshi in World History
Hideyoshi, who took over after Oda Nobunaga's death in 1582, helped transition Japan to a more peaceful era through reforms like the cadastral survey and census while avoiding destruction during conquests. However, Hideyoshi also displayed paranoid behavior like persecuting Sen no Rikyu and Toyotomi Hidetsugu. His costly and unsuccessful invasion of Korea in the 1590s drained resources from both Japan and Korea. After Hideyoshi's death, his regime gave way to the Tokugawa Shogunate within Japan, while Korea suffered painful recovery and Ming China's power declined more rapidly.

Early Japanese Food History
Early Japanese food history was characterized by seasonal migrations and foraging from around 13,000 BCE to 900 BCE during the Jomon period. Later in the Jomon period, horticulture was introduced, including melons, burdock, beans, barley and millet. From 900 BCE to 250 CE in the Yayoi period, early rice agriculture developed alongside continued foraging, fishing and hunting. Rice, barley, millet and other grains as well as pigs and octopus traps were cultivated and domesticated. From the 3rd to 6th century in the Tomb culture period, Yayoi patterns continued alongside the emergence of stoneware and sake fermentation. Population growth and political consolidation also occurred.
